Chapter 82 How could it heal like this?
"He has a fever. Please, Aunt Gu Yuan, pour some hot water for him." Gu Xiaoxi requested.
After hearing this, Gu Yuan’s wife nodded and went to the kitchen.
Gu Xiaoxi turned her back to the sleeping Gu Cheng and took out the antipyretic medicine and fed it to Afeng.
Gu Feng slowly opened his eyes, saw what his mother was giving him to eat, and swallowed it down with his mouth open.
After giving Afeng the antipyretic medicine, Gu Xiaoxi went to see Gu Jin again.
Gu Jin's forehead also began to feel hot, so she quickly gave him some antipyretic medicine.
Gu Jin was also in a daze, but when he saw that it was Gu Xiaoxi, he cooperated and drank the medicine.
When Gu Yuan's wife came in, she saw Xiaoxi checking her son's forehead. She put the large bowl she was holding on the table and asked, "Does Ah Jin have a fever too?"
"Yes, I gave him a pill and auntie gave him some water." Gu Xiaoxi said as she supported Gu Jin.
Gu Yuan's wife brought a bowl and fed Gu Jin some water, and Gu Jin fell asleep again in a daze.
Afterwards, Afeng was given some water and fell asleep.
After waiting for a while, they began to sweat.
Gu Yuan's wife woke up Gu Cheng and changed their clothes.
After dawn, both of them slowly woke up.
After waking up, I felt weak all over. I each ate a bowl of porridge and fell into a deep sleep again.
Seeing that they were fine, Gu Xiaoxi went back to the room over there and fell asleep.
When they woke up at noon, Gu Jin's complexion was obviously much better. Afeng's face was wrapped in cloth, so his complexion could not be seen, but he sounded much more energetic.
Gu Xiaoxi took Gu Jin's pulse again, removed the cloth from the wound to see if it had not split, changed the medicine, and wrapped the cloth again.
Grandpa Gu Liu carefully looked at the wound of his eldest grandson. It was such a big wound, but he could only see centipede-like lines. It was completely different from the treatment method used by Grandpa Ba before.
"Xiaoxi, this wound is so big, how could it heal like this?" he asked curiously.
"Sixth Grandpa, it's because I sewed the wound shut. If I just put the medicine on it, the wound would bleed easily if I moved it a little.
But after it's sutured, the flesh will grow back faster, and most importantly, the wound won't break apart easily." Gu Xiaoxi explained the reason for this.
"Great, great! Xiaoxi has indeed learned a real skill. If he uses this skill outside, he will definitely make a lot of money." Grandpa Gu Liu couldn't help but nod in praise.
"Thank you for the compliment, Sixth Grandpa. Brother Ajin is fine now, so I will take Afeng back first. I will come back to change the medicine the day after tomorrow." Gu Xiaoxi thought that she had to get some chestnuts back so as not to delay her third brother's business.
"Thank you, little girl." Grandpa Gu Liu thanked him and looked up at his daughter-in-law.
Gu Jin's wife took out a string of money from her pocket and stuffed it into Afeng's hand.
"No, no, you can't accept this. When our family was in trouble before, you helped us a lot, and we all remember that.
If I take it, my dad will definitely scold me when he gets home." Gu Xiaoxi quickly waved her hand to return the money.
Gu Jin's wife stuffed the silver money back into Afeng's hand and said in a feigned anger, "This is not for you. This is the first time Afeng comes to our house. This is a gift from my father."
"But, this, this is too much." Gu Xiaoxi saw that the string of money was at least a hundred coins.
On ordinary days, the children in the village only give two cents as a gift when they meet, and those who are close to each other only give ten cents, which is too much.
"Xiaoxi, since Afeng has come home, he is Sixth Grandpa's great-grandson. You have listened to Sixth Grandpa since you were young. Now you have grown up and become independent, right?" Sixth Grandpa Gu said pretending to be angry.
Why……
Gu Xiaoxi finally nodded heavily.
Although she didn't remember what happened before she was eight years old, she still couldn't help but feel a little sad when she saw such an elder.
He was worried that she would bring back three children and would not be able to do that without money.
The old man was very thoughtful, she would have to remember it.
She gave a few more instructions, put the money away, and took Afeng away.
But before she even walked out the door, Gu Cheng stuffed another large piece of meat into her mouth.
"Brother Cheng, that's not necessary." She thought that these were all gained at the cost of their lives and didn't want to take them back.
"Xiaoxi, if you treat me as your brother, take me back. Otherwise, not only will I feel bad, but my brother, my parents, and my grandfather will also feel bad." Gu Cheng looked at Gu Xiaoxi pitifully.
Gu Xiaoxi...
This family is suitable for crying scenes. If you don’t take it back, Gu Cheng will probably send the meat to your home.
If someone saw him walking back with such a big piece of meat, he would probably be begged by many people.
Seeing that Xiaoxi didn't put the meat back, Gu Cheng went into the kitchen, took out a backpack, put the piece of meat in the backpack, and then helped Xiaoxi carry the backpack on her shoulders.
Is a piece of meat that heavy?
Obviously there was something else inside, if not meat, it was probably grain.
"Thank you, Brother Cheng." Gu Xiaoxi didn't ask any more questions. Since it was someone else's thoughtful gesture, it didn't matter whether it was a lot or a little.
"We should thank you, Xiaoxi, you are really amazing." Gu Cheng said happily.
whee……
Gu Xiaoxi smiled and took Afeng on a detour back home.
After returning home, Gu Xiaoxi asked about Afeng's condition carefully. After making sure that Afeng could still endure the pain of the wound, she went out with the basket on her back.
She was so busy with these things yesterday that she didn't go out, so she carried back a few baskets of prickly ash balls first, so as not to have to stay up late at night.
Before dark, she carried back the thorn balls she needed and then went to visit her uncle.
My uncle was collecting bricks. When there was a knock on the door, he opened it, all dirty.
After Gu Xiaoxi came in, she lit a fire and went to the kitchen to cook dinner.
While eating with her uncle, she asked, "Uncle, when we build a house here, can we go in through a door?"
After listening to this, Gu An lowered his head with hesitation.
"Uncle, please think about it. We are a family. Although you are very capable, Dad is still very worried about you." Gu Xiaoxi sincerely invited his uncle to live in the house.
Hearing this, Gu An was touched, but still did not respond.
Gu Xiaoxi didn't ask any more questions. After dinner, they played bricklaying together.
Near midnight, she returned to her home again, then carried two baskets of thorny balls on her back and walked home.
When she passed by her second brother's yard, she heard people talking inside.
"Would you rather believe an outsider than me?" Mrs. Mo lowered her voice a lot, but it couldn't escape Gu Xiaoxi's ears.
Gu Ximing looked at the woman in front of him, not knowing whether he should continue to believe her words?
She saw with her own eyes today that he entered the inn with that man.
They were just selling chestnuts, so there was no need to go into the inn to discuss business.
